   No. :-) I think there is a kernel build how-to somewhere (perhaps in the
FAQ?), but basically you need to:

1) cd /sys/i386/conf and copy GENERIC to 'YOURCONFIG'
2) edit it and take out anything you know that you don't need
3) config 'YOURCONFIG'
4) cd /sys/compile/'YOURCONFIG'; make depend; make; make install
